Unlike Any Other
My home...I hold it deep within me
close to my beating heart
praying someday
I may return.

Is This Heaven?
An hour of solitude on the trails and then I come upon this.
Off the Beaten Path
The oft ignored road
led me to a place where
I could rest awhile
Now only to hold my breath
I strain for some awareness
of this effort made so long ago
the ephemeral dreams of ghosts
and the faint echoes of children's laughter
are all that remain in this lonely place.
Days End
Nine hours in the saddle. And now I am complete.
